Setting: Chase Young's citadel. Present day. The next morning.
It seemed as though everyone was tired the next morning.
Cherushii's hair, ears and tail looked ruffled and somewhat confused.
KJ had one jacket sleeve rolled up and the other down, with her hood up.
Jack kept falling asleep every two minutes.
Chase had noticeable bags under his eyes.
And Wuya…actually, Wuya looked fine.
The five took their seats at the dining table, and had trouble sitting still.
"Oh KJ, I had the worst dream last night!" Cherushii confided in her friend.
"Yeah?" KJ asked, raising an eyebrow. "I dreamt that I was ambushed by spiders. Giant spiders. With mandibles." She glared as she finished her sentence.
"I dreamt that all of the shinies disappeared!" Cherushii exclaimed. "All of them, KJ. ALL OF THEM."
"That's nothing." Jack interrupted. "Try dreaming nothing but constantly being flushed down the toilet."
"So that's why he has that nervous tick…" Cherushii noted, watching his left eye twitch repeatedly.
KJ, Chase and Wuya slowly nodded in agreement.
"What about you, cHAse?" Cherushii asked, changing the subject…in a way.
Chase glared at the four of them.
Would he ever tell them what haunted him in his sleep? HA. No…
"What about me?" He shot back coldly.
Cherushii's eyes widened, Jack snored, Wuya laughed softly, and KJ rolled her eyes.
"Well, I slept fine." Wuya gloated. "Time to put my plan into action."
"Well after watching spider eggs repeatedly being laid in my dreams, I don't really have much of an appetite." KJ admitted.
Cherushii's eyes widened. "I must go check on my shinies!!" She dashed off to her room.
Wuya looked to Jack, who fell over (asleep) in his chair onto the floor.
Chase continued to glare at the two remaining.
"I'll be meditating." He told them, standing up and walking away.
KJ sighed heavily.
"I guess I'll go…dust the library for spiders…or something."
She, too, stood up and walked away, leaving Wuya at the table by herself.
She smirked, and quickly slinked off.
A couple of hours later, a frantic Cherushii burst from her room screaming her head off.
"My shinies!" She screeched. "They've vanished!"
Mere seconds later, Jack came running past, being chased by a living toilet.
He shrieked and ran circles around Cherushii.
Between his girly screams and her cries, both of them were surprised when they heard a scream come from the library.
Cherushii momentarily stopped mourning the loss of her shinies to say, "That sounded like KJ."
Jack didn't stop. He kept screaming and running around.
Cherushii was right-it was KJ.
She ran out where the other two were, and as she did, a giant spider followed her.
"Somebody please kill it!" She pleaded, with tears streaming down her face.
"Oh KJ, it's only a spider." Cherushii rolled her eyes as KJ hid behind her.
The spider stopped in front of Cherushii and hissed, bearing its fangs.
Cherushii's eyes widened. "Oh crap! It's not even shiny!"
She, too, ran in fear of the giant, non-shiny spider.
With confused expressions on their faces, Chase and Wuya joined the three.
"What are you doing?" Chase asked.
"Kill it!"
"Ahh!"
"I want my shinies!"
Rolling his eyes, Chase quickly disposed of the living toilet and giant spider.
The three of them slowly stopped, and opened their previously closed eyes.
KJ's widened, and her jaw dropped.
"Chase…" She gaped. "What happened to you…?"
Cherushii gulped. "cHAse…this is bad…"
An even more confused look overcame Chase's face.
"What are you talking about?" He asked her.
"You're Heylin…" KJ slowly realized.
Chase now understood. KJ had found him out, because he was in his draganoid form.
